Exactly ten days from today is HALLOWEEN - My favorite holiday!! Always has been and probaly always will be. I love the fun factor of it. One day a year, you can get away with dressing up in costumes and go crazy. And plus it always gave me, and still does, the chance to wear one of my dance costumes again.. last year for example, I went to a Hollywood themed party, so I used a can-can dancer type of costume from a performance a few years back and called myself a Moulin Rouge dancer... creative indeed!
I started thinking about a month ago that wheelchair users can have tons of fun with Halloween and use their chair as the ultimate prop!
When I googled Halloween costumes for wheelchair users, I was finding that a lot of sites had said since you already have wheels, use them to your advantage. I came across ideas such as a rock-and-roll drummer (photo above from iltsource.com) and a king or queen on a throne. I'd consider myself a Halloween professional as far as decorations and costumes, so I'm a big stickler for original costumes and something you wouldn't see everyone else in, so these ideas are surely one-of-a-kind if you ask me!
Considering Halloween's on a Saturday this year, enjoy an entire day full of Halloween festivities and don't eat too much candy corn or candy apples!
Happy Halloween to all! Boo!
